enabled, the original sequence was only linked to the .new transcoded clips.

view in some instances.

•If you deleted a restriction in Media Central, any subsequent
restrictions at the same location in the clip did not show up in Media
Composer.

•When working in a Japanese locale, a number of menus were grayed
out.

•If you had a bin with audio effects in a Media Composer v7.x
system and you tried to open it in a Media Composer v8.6.2 system, you might
have received Exception errors.

•A batch import would fail with an “Exception: Cannot quick
import a mixed resolution QuickTime movie” error if you were performing a batch
import on previously imported decomposed master clips.

•In some instances, you might have received an “SFPlay Timeout”
error when playing back an XDCAM EX .mov file.

•In some instances, Wav files were imported with incorrect
timecode.

created through Avid AREMA AMT Service and Agent.

the video, the timecode format for the duration was wrong.
